Abstract
A simple empirical theory, taking into account σ- and π-bonding and electrostatic effects, is applied to the d–d spectra of tetragonal and trigonal bipyramidal chloro-complexes of copper(II). A total of eight bands observed in three compounds can be satisfactorily fitted to a single freely chosen parameter. The theory predicts the relative energies of the d-orbitals as dx2–y2 > dxy > dz2 > dxz, yz for the tetragonal compounds and dz2 > dxy, x2–y2 > dxz, yz in the trigonal bipyramidal case.Keywords
